CrazyGames | https://about.crazygames.com/ | REMOTE | Full-time | Multiple positions
With recent technologies such as WebGL and WebAssembly, the browser has become a powerful gaming platform. High-quality 3D graphics and near-native level performance are becoming possible without the need for downloads, apps, or platform-specific development. We are building the tools to allow game developers to use this opportunity. Our browser games platform is already reaching more than 20 million people per month. We are self-funded, profitable, remote-first, and fast-growing. We are currently looking for people to join our team:
* DevOps and Backend Engineer (REMOTE) - https://crazygames.recruitee.com/o/remote-devops-and-backend...
* User Acquisition Specialist (REMOTE) - https://crazygames.recruitee.com/o/remote-user-acquisition-s...

Heliax | Multiple roles | REMOTE (+-2 hours from CEST ideal) | Full Time | https://heliax.dev/jobs#all-jobs
Heliax is a public goods lab which was built on years of pioneering experience across distributed systems, programming language theory, and zero-knowledge cryptography. All our work is open-source. Examples of some of our projects are Namada (https://github.com/anoma/namada), a sovereign proof-of-stake blockchain; Juvix (https://github.com/anoma/juvix), an experimental programming language; and Taiga (https://github.com/anoma/taiga), a framework for generalized shielded state transitions.
We are currently actively hiring for a number of positions, most notably Senior Rust Engineers, Senior Full Stack Engineers, and a Protocol Security Lead.
For the Senior Rust Engineer position, we are looking for experienced Rust developers that are interested in applying novel research to create high-quality open-source technology and solve outstanding problems in the blockchain space. You'll be working on distributed ledger technology implemented in Rust, all the way up and down the stack from the P2P layer to consensus algorithms, smart contract systems, proof-of-stake incentive mechanisms, privacy-enhancing cryptographic components, and on-chain governance procedures.
For the Senior Full Stack Engineer position, we are looking for either web developers with experience using TypeScript and other modern web frameworks or software developers who have experience with Rust. Some representative examples of features you’ll be working on in this role are: adding support for Ledger hardware wallet connectivity, support for generation and use of file-based keys, generation of shielded transactions using cryptographic libraries, display of any digital asset (including NFTs) and associated transaction history, and on-chain management of staking and governance. It's a plus if you've previously worked with WebAssembly.
For the Protocol Security Lead, you'll be responsible for breaking protocols both in theory and practice in and outside the company, and assembling a team to help them do so. You'll receive a high degree of latitude and autonomy to prioritize tasks and search for the weakest links in complex systems in order to break them. The rough structure could be compared to Google Project Zero, but with a focus on cryptographic protocols & implementations instead of web technology writ large. The ideal candidate would have a background in cryptographic protocol design (e.g. Signal protocol, Noise protocol, TLS), distributed systems protocol design (e.g. Raft, PBFT, replicated SQL) and a penchant for quickly understanding and finding both design & implementation mistakes in unfamiliar systems. You might also have experience in systems hacking, capture-the-flag competitions, penetration testing, or similar activities. Experience in mechanism design, game theory, or cryptoeconomic design is a bonus but not a requirement.
Heliax is a remote-first team, currently composed of cross-disciplinary members located around the world. All of our work is open-source. Our work culture is characterized by open-allocation, where team members have a high degree of freedom and autonomy in choosing when to work, what to work on, and whom to work with.
We have other openings as well, which can be seen at https://heliax.dev/jobs#all-jobs.

Lurk Lab @ Protocol Labs | Multiple Positions | REMOTE | Full-time contract-to-hire
Lurk Lab is building Lurk (https://github.com/lurk-lang), a Turing-complete programming language for recursive zk-SNARKs. Lurk implements a minimal Lisp whose program executions can be proved in zero-knowledge, yielding succinct proofs that are concretely small and fast to verify. Lurk uses a Rust implementation (https://github.com/lurk-lang/lurk-rs) for expression evaluation, proving, and verification, with Nova (https://github.com/microsoft/Nova/) as its proving backend. Because Lurk is Turing-complete, it can be used to make and prove arbitrary computational claims (within resource limits).
We are looking for strong cryptography engineers, researchers, documentation specialists, applications developers, and start-up leaders/web3 entrepreneurs who want to build next-generation SNARK technology. Relevant programming languages include Rust, Lisp, and (less significantly) WASM.
We are hiring for:
- Rust Cryptography Engineers, https://grnh.se/d94e94ec4us
- Software Engineers for Lurk Application Development, https://grnh.se/de7e82424us
- Documentation Engineer, https://grnh.se/10e2ca4d4us
- Start-up operator / business lead (currently unlisted, email luke.sandquist@protocol.ai with CV and a brief cover letter describing your experience driving the business end of deep technical projects in the web3 space)
Node Effect | REMOTE or ONSITE(SEAsia) | 20h/week freelancers/part-timers
- Mobile/desktop developer: experience building with Android and/or iOS and/or macOS and/or Windows and/or Linux. A plus if you're familiar with Xamarin/MAUI and/or GTK.
- WebAssembly developer: experience building nonJavaScript things that are run in the browser. A plus if you're familiar with UNO/Blazor.
- C#/.NET developer: experience using .NET6 or older (we're not the typical Microsoft shop, we happen to care about .NET on Linux/Unix a lot FYI). A plus if you have some F# exposure.
- Blockchain/smartcontracts developer: experience building crypto stuff. A plus if you're familiar with Bitcoin Lightning (even if just as a user).
Please write me at andres at nodeffect dot com and I'll give you more details. Thanks!
PS: These are not managerial or semi-managerial positions, we're fishing for manpower at the moment.
